It was a PR, indeed...so close to that 17 minute barrier. Next time. Congrats to everybody who raced today and thanks to the DC crew (Sheena, Steve, PMurph, Diego, and Dylan) for coming up to cheer us on.

We had 6 guys under 26:50 and another 3 sub 16:00. This bodes well for Cherry Blossom. You guys should start talking about getting a pack together for that 10 miler. I think 5:20s is very doable esp after the taper. DO IT!

Billy ran a big PR.

Diego continues to show he's not "just" a track guy.

Bain is coming back (5:16s today).

Towpath is coming back (60+ last week).

JARRIN is coming back.

Melissa, who is NOT a 5k runner, crushed her PR and danced with the 16:00 barrier!

Mostly I'm just glad that Melissa didn't outkick me, although it would have been great for her to get under 17.

BTW: did anyone happen to leave a black Nike jacket at Arjun's house afterward? If so, just let me know, and Arjun will drop off to either the Georgetown store or to Red Fox this week when he's down there.
